Not something I would use every day but when I need it...

On my Mini forum someone has one they got one eBay for $100 but can’t tell me which one, it would be nice to have larger than a smaller one - plan is for carbs, hubs etc. wanted to throw it out there. Also, what fluids are being used...? Thx

I just bought this exact unit from same supplier. Large enough for all trans parts except shaft and case. It was an experiment as I also do carbs and motorcycle parts. Works ok. loosens everything. I am using simple green, water. Need to add Dawn and see how that goes. No probs with my mag and aluminum as of yet.


The real deal is the vapor blast cabinet I am building (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif)

I'm a big fan of vapor blasting ever since I sent out my motorcycle parts to get done. Our cabinet is almost too big for our shop use. It took a separate transformer to run power and a shop size snap-on compressor to run enough air. It can fit 3 transmissions on it's turntable. But it does get the job done and makes the parts pretty.
